Union player here trying to learn more about our counterparts. Just wondering if you know would the five eighth be similar to the fly half in union? (Take kicks and control the team alongside the scrum-half.
I'd say... League 6/Five-Eighth = Rugby 10/Fly-Half or 12/Inside Centre, depends how they play League 7/Halfback = Rugby 10 Reason is because the League 6 is more of a 2nd receiver and they have a chance to be more effective in playmaking because of less defenders than rugby.
Your analysis of a centre was weak bro - we do far more than just man mark and create space, we're the backs who are best at tackling and you forgot to mention our role can be interchangeable with a second row if needs be
You the real MVP making this video. Can I ask where does the three quarters term and five eighth position got their name from? Whats the story behind it
I'm going to assume it's the same as rugby union. So, it's essentially a reference to how far 'back' these positions are located on the field. 'Full back' is self explanatory. Wings are also called 'three quarters' because they are located 3/4 back. 'Five eights' are located 5/8 from the back. That's my understanding. Hope it makes sense? Tricky one to explain. 😂
Not really. It's based on fractions. You have the halfback, 4/8. You have the fullback, 8/8. In between, you have the three-quarters, 6/8. In between the 6/8 and the 4/8 is the 5/8. So on the field you have the five-eighth(#6) in between the halfback(#7) and the three-quarters(2-5). And the forwards are based on the scrum formation.

NRL is so strict with their Copyright 🤦♂️
Just so you know, the lock also sometimes follows the play-the-ball in defence.
Where are they position on kickoff
Great video, very well articulated, and awesome to see so much Broncos/Maroons domination!
Precisely done ✔️
Thank you.
You could have mentioned the typical bench setup as well, but since it changes so much, fair enough to leave it out
well done. thanks mate.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the vid mate 🤙🏼

@@willus259 oh okay thanks that’s rlly helpful. 😁
This is so good thank you
Thank you too!
Just remember children, any opposition player can't run without a head.
That’s what my dad use to tell me when I played “they can’t run without a (head) eyes.”
What about the flankers

Centres have to make the most crucial defensive decisions as well
Nah bro it’s not a scrum half that’s that’s rugby Union bro

That’s a great question, I’ll make another video exploring that

@@jughead4845 thanks. yeah, that's what i was attempting to articulate. keyword i left out being 'fractions'.
5/8s is halfway between half(back) and (centre) threequarter
forwards backs and middle bro....?

How come you don't use the original names for certain positions ?ie scrum half , stand off ,loose forward ?
That's just what I've heard other people use, does it matter?
Also they are English terms ,we don’t use these position names in Australia .
@@JudyMockeridge-gx1px yes we do mate
Those 3 examples you mentioned are not used in Rugby League.
@@colkur5007 don't be silly now ,they have only been used for a hundred years .
